Maximizing Good Times: The Science Behind Life Satisfaction

from Willow Healing Matters Podcast · host Willow Healing

Christian W. Schnepf is the founder of the Science of Good Time, an adventurous sociologist and human behavior expert, and the founder of GoodTime.app - the world’s first data-based navigation system for life. He’s dedicated to making the conscious pursuit of Good Times the #1 priority in human life and has been featured by now on TEDx, in China Daily, and on Shanghai’s Broadway screens via China Central Television. Global performers who share stages with Will Smith and meet with Barack Obama, and lead international multi-million-dollar businesses, consult him on their most complex challenges in human development. Christian is the creator of the Good Time philosophy and the linked Science of Good Time with its life-navigation framework, including the world’s first cross-cultural functioning life satisfaction metric, the Good Time Ratio (GTR), the Five Universal Life Areas, and the Four Playgrounds model to systematically upgrade life quality, align priorities, and design more sustainably rewarding choices. His work is rooted in years of cross-cultural exploration and a Ph.D.-level research project at Shanghai University, and bridges scientific insight with real-world transformation. By blending philosophy, data-driven design, systems thinking, and soul, he delivers practical solutions to individuals, organizations, and universities worldwide, challenging the deepest beliefs of people about how life works. At the heart of it all lies a single radical question: “How can life be made truly lovable—systematically, repeatably, and for everyone?” He found that helping to answer this question is the most meaningful way to spend his lifetime.You can connect with Christian via his websites: Christian W Schnepf’s Website: https://chrisw.co GoodTime App: https://goodtime.appOr via social media: YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chriswgt Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/chrisw.gt/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/chrisw.gt/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chrisw-gtIf Christian could heal or change something in the world it would be aligning all human efforts towards the conscious pursuit of maximizing good times for individuals and our societiesThank you so much for listening to our podcast!🌿 Ceremonial cacao I personally use:Get herePerfect for meditation, ritual, and grounding practices discussed in this episode.My Book Obsession is Catherine Crestani’s virtual book club and reader space, where stories are released slowly and explored through reflection.It is home to Catherine’s novel My Virtual Obsession, a psychological story exploring intimacy, loneliness, desire, and the blurred edges between technology and connection.The full book is now available, with ongoing reflections and reader discussions inside My Book Obsession.🔗 Start here: mybookobsession.substack.comYou can check out our store with e-books, books, courses and more here - https://payhip.com/WillowHealingIf you would like to find out more about us check out willowhealing.org or our Substack willowhealing.substack.com .Feel free to link up with us on Instagram! @willowhealingshYou can email us directly at [email protected] healing!
